Summertime is in full swing and that means barbecues, relaxation, and of course traveling. What better way to experience the summer season than by enjoying the great outdoors.

National Park Service sites have been around for decades and in that time have offered a sweeping array of experiences across the country for patrons young and old. In 2016, NPS locations topped over 330 million visitors. Looking specifically at the 59 National Parks, attendance is expected to be well over 60 million in 2017.

In the advent of social media, these locations have offered near perfect photo opportunities to share with friends and family.

With all this in mind, we crunched the numbers, Instagram posts, hashtags and attractions to bring you the 10 national parks you should visit and Instagram right now.

Here's our rankings:

1) Great Smoky Mountains National Park (Tennessee)

Established in 1934 and featuring 522,427 acres of land, Great Smoky Mountains National Park tops our list as the best camping spot. With over 11 million visitors annually, it is the most visited national park and for good reason, too. One hundred unique waterfalls and cascades, over 800 miles of hiking trails and the designation of being the salamander capital of North America make this park a must-visit.

2) Yellowstone National Park (Wyoming)

Three words: Grand Prismatic Spring. It is the third largest spring in the world and features swaths of yellow, green, and orange deep within its blue water. The best way to experience this sight is at night when the open skies allow the lights of the Milky Way to enhance the array of colors. Cap the night off in one of over 2000 campsites spread among 12 campgrounds. America's first national park stands as one of its best.

3) Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park

Want to see active volcanoes up close? You can do that. Want to camp out near a volcano? You can do that too. Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park features no shortage of awe-inspiring activities including hikes and a drive around the summit of the Kīlauea volcano. The volcano is a sight to behold at night when its orange hue lights up the sky for tired campers to admire.

4) Glacier National Park (Montana)

We've showed you a lava-filled park that's sure to heat up your summer, but for fans of frosty temperatures, there's a park for you as well. Featuring glaciers that feed water into Pacific Ocean, Gulf of Mexico, and Hudson Bay, this unique park has an affect on all of North America. Glacier National Park allows park visitors to camp directly on the river. This may require more hurdles than most traditional campgrounds, but for sights like these, it's truly worth the hassle.

5) Yosemite National Park (California)

It's truly hard to pinpoint a landmark attraction at Yosemite National Park. Feeling adventurous? Take a hike to the top of Half Dome. More of a sightseer? Watch one of the many waterfalls such as Horsetail Fall. Camping is highly seasonal at Yosemite with only a few grounds remaining open year-round. Fortunately, much of the camping season takes place in the summer months before closing up in the late fall.

6) Zion National Park (Utah)

Imagine this: You're walking through a gorge 20 feet wide with natural rock walls as high as 1000 feet. Underneath you lies the Virgin River. At Zion National Park, this isn't an outdoor fantasy, it's reality. The Narrows remains one of Zion's peak attractions driving nearly four million visitors each year. Campers beware, most campgrounds are full by mid-morning and are full in peak months almost every night.

7) Grand Canyon National Park (Arizona)

In a list featuring some of America's greatest national parks and camping spots within, how could we forget the Grand Canyon. Clocking in at 18 miles wide, 277 river miles long and a mile deep, its size is sure to overwhelm park-goers. The glass Skywalk, located at the western end of the canyon, allows visitors to get up close and personal with the massive canyon. Extending 70 feet over the rim of the canyon and 4,000 feet to the floor, this attraction is truly a one of a kind experience.

With regards to camping, it is split between the South and North Rims. The southern side is easier to get to and by far the most popular, however, during the summer months its popularity causes the canyon to be reserved to capacity. Meanwhile, the North Rim is much harder to get into and because of snowfall has a very short season.

8) Mount Rainier National Park (Washington)

Ascending 14,410 feet above sea level, Mount Rainier is the most glaciated peak in the United States of America. A multitude of wildflowers form a ring around the cool volcano. Campers are encouraged to take advantage of the altitude with sites reaching as high as 5000 feet above sea level.

9) Cuyahoga Valley National Park (Ohio)

A short distance away from major metropolitan areas such as Akron and Cleveland, Cuyahoga Valley feels like a world away and for good reason. The national park features forests, hills and farmland. What stands above all is the ability to experience a wetland marsh up close at Beaver Marsh. There's a chance you'll see beavers who actually helped form it. Much like Yosemite before it, Cuyahoga is highly seasonal for camping. Unfortunately, there is no year-round camp ground.

10) Joshua Tree National Park (California)

Rounding our list is Joshua Tree National Park. Two deserts converge in this stunning locale situated in Southern California. While there is no shortage of hiking trails, the best activity to take part in happens at night. As the sun fades and the cool desert air fills the atmosphere, dozens of stars, meteors and planets shine bright in the desert night sky. What better way to cap off a long day than to watch the Milky Way from one of several campsites.
